Thesis statement heavily revised

Posted by Joel VandenBrink under

Here is the new one. For all you people out there who browse my site I would, as always, love your thoughts. They don’t have to be ‘educated’ or ‘academic.’ They just have to be your thoughts.

Thesis statement verion 2.0

Although the Hebraic paradigms of Prophet, Priest, and King have been examined in Protestant thought since the Reformation I claim that the old constructs can no longer completely contain the cultural shift to post modernity and need to be reconstructed using new understandings of power, powerlessness, authority and patriarchy This is true because the emerging generation of church leaders no longer looks at the power, powerlessness (if there was any), and authority of ages past with healthy connotations. This is also true because the old paradigms have been built around patriarchal leadership and as the Church begins to slowly move toward a both/and with gender these paradigms need to be rebuilt to include matriarchal leadership.
